Selena Gomez Channels Taylor Swift: Plans to Re-record Iconic Hit 'Who Says'
Selena Gomez's Secret Wish: To Re-Record Her Smash Hit "Who Says"
Get ready for a juicy scoop, folks! Selena Gomez has been dropping some major tea on her latest podcast appearance with Jake Shane on Therapuss. The 33-year-old starlet opened up about her teenage years, her hit song "Who Says," and her iconic friendship with Taylor Swift.
A Blast from the Past
Selena Gomez & The Scene's lead single "Who Says" off their 2011 album When the Sun Goes Down is a fan favorite. But for Selena, it's more than just a catchy tune - it's a powerful reminder of her past struggles and growth. During the podcast episode, she confessed that listening back to the song made her cry. "It's the most powerful moment when I get to perform it," she gushed.
A Song That Resonates
Selena revealed that she's been thinking about re-recording "Who Says" for a while now. She wants to update the track, making it sound more mature and soulful. "I need to redo it. I should recut it," she said. The reason behind this desire? Her original recording sounds too "young." Ouch! But Selena doesn't plan on just dropping the song; she wants to recreate it with a fresh perspective.
That One Song That Still Gives Her Chills
During her podcast appearance, Selena shared that when she heard "Who Says" playing on the radio while abroad, she broke down in tears. Why? Because the song still resonates with her today - but now for different reasons. As she put it, "It's like I'm hearing those words for the first time." She confessed that back then, she loved the song because everyone could relate to its empowering message, but now it means so much more.
A Friendship That Transcends Time
Speaking of relatable moments, Selena reminisced about her 16-year friendship with Taylor Swift. They met during their teenage years when they were both dating Jonas Brothers - Nick and Joe respectively. After their breakups, the two became inseparable friends. "We bonded over our breakups," she explained. As a result, their friendship has become one of the most iconic in Hollywood.
Taylor's Secret Gift
But what's even more fascinating is that Selena revealed Taylor played an incredible song for her before anyone else heard it - and we're not surprised that it's still a secret! The only hint we got was when she said it was "incredible." Guess we'll just have to wait and see if Taylor will spill the beans about this mysterious tune.
A Tour on the Horizon?
In related news, Selena hinted at possibly going back on tour - but not for any old reason. She wants to perform "Who Says" live. "That's honestly the only reason I would ever do a tour again," she said. We can't wait to see if this will finally happen!
It looks like we have some new music on the horizon, folks! Stay tuned for more updates on Selena Gomez's re-recorded version of "Who Says" and her future tours.
